How does estrogen influence reproductive aging and the onset of menopause?

Estrogen regulates reproductive aging by affecting ovarian reserve and hormonal feedback mechanisms, thereby influencing the timing of menopause. Its decline leads to decreased fertility and eventual cessation of menstruation.
Estrogen regulates menstrual cycles and maintains ovarian reserves. As estrogen levels decline, follicular depletion accelerates, leading to menopause onset.
